The Cape Town restaurant scene is ever-expanding. That Carlucci’s Blouberg has managed to remain a popular eatery for over a decade is proof to the success of their unique combination of location, food and service excellence.
While its history traces back to 1997, Carlucci’s Blouberg actually opened doors in 2007 on one of the most ideal locations in the world – the Blouberg beachfront. Sitting at your table, you can enjoy the various activities at the beachfront, in the sea and postcard views of Table Mountain in the distance.
Yes, Carlucci’s Blouberg is not a 5-Star eatery, but many of their regular patrons agree, the restaurant is worth every cent. Inside the shop, expect a casual, relaxed atmosphere.
Besides great coffee, craft beers, mouth-watering sandwiches and other treats, it is their dedication to giving the best service that has endeared them with patrons. Because Carlucci’s Blouberg is a small shop, you can expect faster quicker service.
Carlucci’s Blouberg menu
The Carlucci’s Blouberg café-style menu is the product of a 20-plus-year search on how to serve the best light meals. Enjoy anything from the grab-and-go meals to pizzas and over 20 different types of sandwiches that everyone agrees are to die for.
Try their freshly-baked artisanal bread, often served with generous fillings, and proper authentic, boiled bagels complemented by freshly ground coffee.
Vegetarians and those with special dietary requirements will be happy to hear that they have not been forgotten at Carlucci’s Blouberg. Their freshly pressed juices are a hit! The range of combinations is unique to the Carlucci’s menu and sourcing the freshest fruit and vegetables for these juices is a daily priority.
After a day at the beachfront, you can check-in for sundowners and sample their craft beer menu.
This year, they announced that their full menu – including home-cooked meals and pizza’s, is now available for take away collection. They can bring it out to your car and you can order off the Mr Delivery service.
Owing to its success, Carlucci’s has since opened doors in several other locations. Each store, however, maintains its own unique character and menu.
